Royals Knock Off Indians, 7-2
The rain made it unbearable at times; nonetheless, the faithful who endured the elements enjoyed themselves.

Kansas City right fielder Jermaine Dye was instrumental in helping the Royals triumph, 7-2, over the Cleveland Indians. Dye was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Kansas City, at 33-34, occupies second place in the American League Central Division.

The game turned with two out in the bottom of the fourth. That's when Dye hit a run-scoring single off Bob Feller. It propelled the Royals into the lead, 3-2.

"I think we did a good job of looking for pitches we wanted to hit and put good swings on them," said Kansas City skipper .
